DAVID KILGOUR

sugar mouth

Reissue des 2ten Soloalbums von 1994 inkl. 10 Bonustracks bzw. Demos auf der CD-Version. Zeitlos guter Gitarrenpop vom Kopf der neuseeländischen Band The Clean, mit denen er den Blueprint für den sog. New Zealand-Sound mit schuf. "Sugar Mouth" is laden with mesmerizing guitar melodies and shimmering pop brilliance. However, like all his work there is the tilt of sunny melancholy, at times swapping out the guitar fuzz for a touch of acoustic strong's and piano. And, like all his career, it's ear-catching from the start with No No No, Fallaway and Filter perfect examples of his knack for well-crafted but deceptively simple songs. *Flying Nun
